12V power options for a recording camera

Attached is a pic from my Acadia. I tapped a 12V source located in the overhead console. It's ignition activated. It was easy to do since a plug with uninstalled options was there. Does the X5 have an ignition source to tap into in the upper console? With garage, lights, and an pano buttons, I assume there's no free 12V option/plug to tap. The camera above recorded its first accident two days ago. Both drivers took off so I could not share the video for their insurances. With so many bad drivers in ATX, I would like a recording camera. A rear camera will come later.
